i cannot create partition without making partition table first?
Do you have pictures turned on in the browser? For those instructions you have to look at the pictures to see a lot of the settings. If I understand which step you're on, you need to make a Primary fat32 (ms-dos) partition. I made mine 100MB. The second partition should be ext3, and people have lately been making it under 2GB so they can install apps.
